Should we be getting beaten by East Fife at Tannadice? No way. But, it's my opinion the current structure of the competition acts as a leveller and means lower league clubs are getting better results than they would a few weeks later.
Yep, I think you're right. Every year since this new format has come in there have been 2 or 3 shock results. St Johnstone losing to Montrose and Dunfermline losing to Edinburgh City were both bigger shockers than us losing to East Fife. No-one should think that's OK but these things happen in football, and more regularly at this stage in the season.
